Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing bundle packs, in particular bundle packs for cigarettes (cigarette rod), wherein a group of packs, in particular cigarette packs, is wrapped in an outer wrapper to form the bundle pack, and wherein the packs each have a coding, in particular a barcode, and the group of packages is wrapped in the outer wrapper so that the coding of the packages is not obscured by the outer wrapper and thereafter a means for masking the coding of the packages, in particular a blank or a (stick) label, and a coding
  • the invention relates to a device for carrying out the method according to the preamble of claim 9.
  • the invention relates to a Gebindepackun produced in particular by the method g according to the preamble of claim 8.
  • Bundle packs have been known for a long time, especially in the cigarette industry.
  • the packs or cigarette packs which form the contents of the bundle pack or cigarette rod are usually arranged next to one another and preferably in several rows one behind the other.
  • a preferred formation is an arrangement of the packages in two rows of five packages each.
  • the package contents are usually wrapped in an outer wrapper of packaging material such as paper or paperboard, which may optionally be surrounded by an additional protective cover, for example made of polypropylene, polyethylene, cellophane or the like, in order to seal the bundle pack in an aroma-tight manner.
  • the coding can provide information for the production or via the manufacturer and information for sale to the end customer, for example, information for querying the sale price from a product database or the like.
  • package packages are known in which the outer envelope is formed such that the packages are partially visible.
  • This kind of bundle packs also includes the so-called “naked wrap", in which the outer wrapper is formed only by a transparent protective cover made of polypropylene. This has the consequence that the packages or their coding through the outer sheath are visible or readable.
  • the coding of the pack is inadvertently read in instead of the packaging of the bundle pack, which can lead to an erroneous calculation of the retail price of bundle pack.
  • the bundle pack is provided with a blank, for example a label, to cover the coding of the package.
  • This label may also have the coding for the bundle pack.
  • the object of the invention is to propose measures which lead to a favorable production of bundle packs of this special type.
  • a method according to the invention has the features of claim 1. It is therefore provided that the bundle pack is fed to a coding station for applying the coding for the bundle pack to the outer wrapper and / or for attaching the means for concealing the coding of the packs, wherein the bundle pack transports at least in the region of the coding station by a cyclically driven conveying means and that the coding and / or the means for covering are applied during a short-term standstill of the conveyor in the coding station.
  • the coded bundle pack is subsequently fed to a test station, in particular for checking the coding and / or masking of the coding of the packs, with faulty bundle packings being discarded in the region of an ejection station arranged after the test station.
  • a special feature may be that the bundle pack is transported at least in the area of the coding station and / or the test station, with its longitudinal extent substantially transverse to the transport direction of the conveyor, and that the coding of the bundle pack in the coding of the packs by a side next to the Conveyor arranged coding station is attached, preferably in the range of transverse end faces of the bundle pack.
  • This arrangement allows easy attachment of the coding and / or labels in the area of coding of the packages.
  • the bundle pack is first transported with its longitudinal extent substantially parallel to the transport direction of the conveyor and rotated by about 90 ° before reaching the coding in a turning station, so that the bundle pack is transported with its longitudinal extent substantially transverse to the transport direction of the conveyor, wherein the bundle pack after the coding station and / or the test station is rotated again in a further turning station by about 90 °, so that it is transported with its longitudinal extent substantially parallel to the transport direction of the conveyor.
  • This way is easy integration into existing devices for the production and packaging of bundle packs possible.
  • the coding of the packs is overprinted in the coding station and the coding of the pack of packings attached to the outer wrapper is particularly imprinted. This eliminates the need to attach a blank to hide the coding of the packages.
  • the coding station in the conveying path between a device for producing the bundle packs (bar packers) and a device for grouping and / or cartoning the coded bundle packs (cartoning machine) in order to ensure integration into existing packaging machines.
  • a coding station is arranged along a conveying path formed by a conveyor for the bundle packs for attaching the means for concealing the coding of the packs and / or for attaching the coding to the bundle pack in the area of the coding of the packs, wherein the conveying means is cyclically driven for mounting the means for covering and / or coding on the bundle pack during a standstill phase of the conveyor.
  • a test station is arranged downstream of the coding station in the region of the conveying path for checking, in particular, the coding.
  • an ejection station may be arranged for the purpose of separating bundle packs, in particular with faulty coding.
  • the bundle pack can be arranged at least in the region of the coding station and / or the test station on the conveyor with its longitudinal extent substantially transverse to the conveying direction, wherein end faces of the bundle pack are facing an arranged next to the conveyor path coding.
  • blanks for covering the coding of the packages from a reel to Codierstation can be supplied, wherein on the reel a continuous strip of material is wound as carrier material with spaced successively labels as blanks, and wherein the strips of material in a plane which is parallel to the end face of the bundle packs, is transportable, and wherein the labels are preferably printed in this upright conveyor section in a printing station, and wherein the labels are detachable by deflection of the strip of material from the carrier strip, and wherein in the Deflection is arranged a slider for receiving a label detached from the carrier strip and wherein the slider is movable in a substantially horizontal plane against a facing end face of the bundle pack for attaching the label to the outer envelope of the container ackung.
  • the coding station is assigned a reel with a continuous material strip of packaging material for forming blanks for concealing the coding of the packages, wherein the material strip is removable from the reel and fed to a printing station for applying a coding and / or an additional Printing on the continuous strip of material and that the printed strip of material can be fed to a glue station for attaching a gluing on the strip of material and that the glued strip of material can be fed to a separating station for separating blanks from the strip of material and that the isolated Blanks by means of a slider on an end face of the bundle pack is movable for attaching the printed, glued and individualized blank on the outer wrapping of the bundle pack.
  • Another special feature may consist in that two coding stations are arranged consecutively along the conveying path, wherein always only one coding station is in operation for uninterrupted operation of the coding station when feeding new material to one of the two coding stations or during a material change.
  • a bundle pack according to the invention has the features of claim 8.
  • a special feature consists in the fact that the coding of the packs is covered by a print on the outer wrapper and that the outer wrapper has a preferably additional printing for coding the bundle pack. This eliminates the need to attach a blank to hide the coding of the packages.
